Anybody doing two-a-day workouts?
Anyone? I'm considering adding an early run/cardio session on my strength days, or splitting my running mileage up so that I'm running twice a day. Anyone doing this? If so, can I get some feedback?

How do you "sweeten" the deal??
Sugar? Honey? Splenda? Some people swear by the artificial stuff, but still others purport that plain ol' sugar is better for you? Who's using what?? Which one should I use?? Does it really matter?!?! (Not trolling, just want the info, thanks!)

Calorie Obssessing??
Hey, gang! Just a question: for those who are pre-logging, if you don't eat/drink as much as you recorded, do you go back and make tiny adjustments? For instance, I said I would have 10 crackers and 2 tbs of peanut butter (5 cracker sandwiches). Well, I only ate 4 of the cracker sandwiches...when you do things like that,…

Lipitor - Who's taking it? Any Problems?
Okay, so I am officially taking a "med". *sigh* I didn't want to, but my doctor was pretty concerned, so I caved.

Hey, all! Those who are on this fitness journey (maybe more towards the beginning), are you having issues with decreased libido?? It seems like the further along I go, the less I want to be sexually intimate with my husband!! Anyone else have this problem? Is it just temporary, or is there maybe something I'm missing?…

After all of the success
Hello all! Congrats to everyone on their success! I know this might seem like a personal question, but I would like to know: for those who have lost 100 pounds or more, did you have any trouble with loose/sagging skin?

Why does the scale hate me!?!?
:grumble: We're doing a "Biggest Loser" challenge at work. I was already on my fitness path before it started, but I thought it would be a fun way to get fit with friends, and win some cash. Yeah, I'm the biggest loser...of the competition. UGH, why do the numbers on the scale keep going up?! :sad: I had to change my pants…
